Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me 10,348 times.....
Yesterday's reversal of his promise to allow Ukraine to build Patriot defense systems followed a call with the leader of the Russian war criminal regime. The reversal should provoke us to remember three things:
1. Conservatives and Republicans have conceded a benchmark of American liberty by reinforcing the idea that one man - the president - can start wars, tariff nations, suspend treaties, etc. - by fiat - notwithstanding the unconstitutionality of such actions.
2. Putin - not Laura Loomer, Melania, Congress - has ultimate sway with the American president on Ukraine.
3. On even the most basic issue of protecting women and children from being murdered in their sleep by giving Ukraine defensive weapons, the Administration remains on the wrong side.

Spain treated every single person with dignity and respect on this tragic situation.
We defend human rights.
We are not US. Of course we are not genocides as Netanyahu.
We are spanish and we are proud of who we are.
In the Faroe Islands, parents immerse their kids in acts of extreme violence from an early age.
This child wears a helmet to protect his head—but there's nothing to protect his mind.
"I said it's a bold move by Reform to use the Navy to return migrants. What did I say Roy?"
"You said it's an unworkable load of bollocks designed to win back some racist numbskulls from Rupert Lowe and distract attention from Farage's £5m bung"
People of Clacton, @ByDonkeys have absolutely lifted the lid here.
You pay Farage £94k to be your MP. He’s hardly ever there.
Meanwhile his 12 other jobs have paid him £1,182,498 since the election, Mayfair gold dealers, tax-avoidance passport hustlers, US anti-abortion outfits, thousands of Cameo videos, the lot.
He who pays the piper dictates the tone.
When the bigger cheques come from multimillionaires and foreign interests, what makes you think he’s representing you?
Well, they're on their way back to Morocco actually, as they never had any way to reach mainland Spain, let alone the UK, but who needs facts when you're Bobby J the King of Bullshit.
We hadn’t even introduced Becky onto the page as she was adopted before arriving.
Becky actually arrived with Hei-Wa from China and is a small ish whippet type.
Originally from @CandyCaneRescue we lent a paw and just made use of the flight to help another.
We had an enquiry from a home with another whippet and they were so excited they even tracked her flight over ❤️
Just to remind you we are not becoming a rescue for China dogs.
We now and again help @CandyCaneRescue as we have a long standing relationship.
We are not a Spanish rescue looking to import dogs when we know there is so many here. Kerry at Candy Hound has helped GDS enormously over in the UK especially with unwanted black Greyhounds and dogs that have bounced from their homes.
It’s give and take and we love to give back in this way.
Back to Becky tho… such a good girl and we are delighted she’ll never see a meat market again in China 🇨🇳
Have a wonderful life Becky 😍

🚨 Just a reminder not to forget us.
Right now I'm responsible for 🐶 68 rescue dogs, 🫏 1 rescued donkey, 🐱 1 rescued cat, and 👶 human 7 month.
I lost my job in May, and the salary that kept this rescue running disappeared overnight. Everything now feels uncertain.
Yes, he said this, word for word, I checked
Firstly it's a downright lie, as not a single one of them crossed to the mainland (they need a visa from Ceuta and if they had one, why put themselves through the risk of drowning etc, they would have travelled legally on it long ago)
Secondly and more widely, I'm sorry but it takes a particular kind of gall to constantly fan these often racist flames, when 𝒚𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝒐𝒘𝒏 𝒑𝒂𝒓𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒔 were basically economic migrants, looking for a better life, fleeing from conflict and poverty in Sri Lanka. The only difference is his parents were much luckier than the people he constantly whips up hate against (for reasons best known to himself) in that the UK 𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒚 came to in the 80s and he grew up in was a much more welcoming place for "migrants," economic or otherwise
I'm sorry (and obviously @BBCNewsnight is one of the best programmes on the BBC) but I can't believe what I've just seen
Half of it devoted to the 60 000 who have crossed into Ceuta but 𝐧𝐨 𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 whatsoever they've practically all gone back to Morocco already !
No wonder Reform spreads, unchallenged, its "they're all coming here" narrative (see Suella Braverman's tweet whipping up the anger, claiming right on cue that "most of them are heading to the UK !")
I mean, really @BBCNewsnight ? You go out live and the fact they've practically all gone back to Morocco already has been out there since early evening !
I'll never forget the way Lex used to howl after Lucy was taken. The day they took her, he watched helplessly from the fence. As the vehicles pulled away, he chased as long as he could, then stuck his nose into the fence, nostrils twitching, trying to understand why his friend was being taken away.

@JonathanWiltsh7@campbellclaret A lot of evidence and accounts that the Moroccan border guards just disappeared and let them all through. Who s to know - 2 sides of the story and the truth. No surprise it’s being used here to stir up hate and Yusuf got there very quickly … but it seems most have returned.
Will you be posting about their return to Morocco and the raft that none have reached the European mainland? Or does that not fit your narrative. Vote Binface
